Is it possible to meet up with English People one day? Anne wrote this last year and nobody took time out to welcome her! It's really sad!!!

you are concerned about the people here: "are they friendly?" you would ask. Yes, we are!!!but, what about you??

Is there an imaginary line preventing us from meeting up? what is sure is that it's not a matter of language!!!I'm just trying to understand, can anyone answer?

Hi All
I am very new in this and hope you can help me. My husband will be this week in Reunion to find out things for the tender they must give. If all goes well, we might be moving there. I actually hope so! A change will be good. We are Afrikaans and English from South Africa. First I need to know if there are English schools. Or maybe an English teacher among you who are prepared to give home schooling? Thanks and looking forward to your reply. Celia

Celia,

I'm afraid as far as I know there are no English schools on the Island and in general very little English is spoken or understood, its all French (or Creole). Depending where you are on the Island I'm sure there are people on here who can give home French lessons.

Actually you do have english school in St.leu but for kids under 6 years old and you also have many English teachers here in the Island where they give private lessons at their place or your place..

A very warm welcome..
I have met quite a number of english speaker here,and am sure you can have a teacher.
I presume its for the children,as you have not specified...but since you are comming to live here,french is compulsory.So i think you ought to orientate yourselves with french laguage.
I am learning french too cos am not french,and the communication barrier is so vast..if u dont speak french,you will seem to be lost,but i like it here cos people are more accommodating and very helpful..not unless they dont understand you at all..
But welcome to this beautiful island..

Hi thank you for your reply. Yes it is for Grade 2 onwards for about 4 years. If we are 100% sure we are going, I will immediately start with French classes. At the moment just need to get an English school or someone who are an English Teacher who are prepared to give home schooling. We can even obtain all the books. Just until their French is up to date. It is 2 boys.

hi celia

if ever you were to come in la réunion and live in saint pierre or nearby.... i may be able to help you out in French, Creole and of course English!! it's possible only if you don't mind having a reunionese teacher!

i've been giving lessons in english to children for more than 10 years;

Though i train adults, teaching to children is more my cup of tea!
